The distortion on the intermittency signal, due to detection efficiency and to the presence of pre--equilibrium emitted particles, is studied in a schematic model of nuclear multi- fragmentation. The source of the intermittency signal is modeled with a percolating system. The efficiency is schematized by a simple function of the fragment size, and the presence of pre--equilibrium particles is simulated by an additional non--critical fragment source. No selection on the events is considered, and therefore all events are used to calculate the moments. It is found that, despite the absence of event selection, the intermittency signal is quite resistant to the distortion due to the apparatus efficiency, while the inclusion of pre--equilibrium particles in the moment calculation can substantially reduce the strength of the signal. Pre--equilibrium particles should be therefore carefully separated from the rest of the detected fragments, before the intermittency analysis on experimental charge or mass distributions is carried out.
